Tips and Considerations

• Make sure to check the "Allow less secure apps" option in your Gmail account settings if you're using Method 2, as HostGator's webmail may not support OAuth authentication.
• If you're using Method 1, be aware that HostGator's webmail may not support forwarding emails to Gmail addresses that have 2-factor authentication enabled.
• If you're experiencing issues with forwarding emails, try checking your email account settings and ensuring that the forwarding addresses are correct.
• Keep in mind that forwarding emails may not work if your HostGator account is set up with a custom domain and you're using a Gmail address that's not associated with that domain.
